How to become Vampire in the romancing

BlackEagle1975 · Post by **BlackEagle1975** » Tue Apr 03, 2001 4:53 am

I must fight agaist Bodhi, after I emerge from the UnderDark. My romance with Jaheira is to 45 and the JaheiraRomanceActive is set to 1. I know that when I meet Bodhi, she bites my partner (in this case Jaheira) and makes her in Vampire, but when I meet Bodhi this don't happen also if I leave Jaheira alone with Bodhi. After I defeat Bodhi I found her Heart, but nobody is a Vampire. I tried to make Jaheira in Vampire much time, but I always failed either fighting or waiting without fighting.

Anyone can help me?

BlackEagle-Your JaheiraRomanceActive must be 2 (this usually happens after the third and final encounter with Dermin) before she gets turned into a vampire

Bodhi not turning your lover into a vampire should be a good thing.

It makes no difference in the game, just the fact that you can't get the experience you probably would get from restoring your lover.

What happened to you is the same thing that would've happened if you didn't have a lover.

A question back: How do you know how far the romance have progressed ?
You're refering to the romance being to 45, where do you find this ?

If you didn't get the romance going on,you'll miss what Jaheira(or any other potential romance partners) says as a romance partner before going to the Tree of Life in Suldanassellar(sp?)

The CLUAConsole is the console actived by editing the Baldur.ini file insertin "Debug Mode=1" after [Program Options].
To use the console push CTRL+SPACE in the game

Brink is right, the JaheiraRomanceActive variable must be set to 2 before Bohdi will abduct Jaheira. I must say, the Jaheira romance can be the most frustrating to keep on track. Do you have a save game from right after the Underdark? If so, if you've some quests you haven't done, I would do them before the showdown in the Graveyard District, and give Jaheira's romance time to advance. You can also advance her romance via the console, but you have to know what you're doing.

Sojourner-Thanks for explaining that

Excuse me but if the JaheiraRomanceActive variable must be set to 2 this mean that the feeling with jaheira ia downing?

i want to tell: is downing?

BlackEagle-When the [Insert character name]RomanceActive is set to one,this means that that character is still at the flirting stage with your PC.When it is at 2, then your PC is already romancing that character and this will trigger the 'Bodhi makes my lover a vampire' sequence.When it is set at 3,this means the romance is over(means that you have finished the romance or ended it halfway through the flirting stages/when the romance was still on )

Thank you Brink!
But this mean tha I am a problem: I finisched all the quest in the game and my romance with jaheira is just to 45/70!!!

Yeah, I had the same problem. The Jaheira romance is the longest so you have to take your time in the game.
I ended up wandering the lands for about 20 days with nothing to do, but waiting for the next romance dialogue.

Where are you in the romance?
Have you bought her the necklace from the merchant in the Docks? Did you rescue her from bandits? Has she gone back to the Harperhold on her own? Have you fought Dermin? What was her last romance dialog with you?

Brink · Post by **Brink** » Tue Apr 03, 2001 5:54 am

BlackEagle-Try leaving your game running for around 30-45 minutes(pause it,do something in real life for that amount of time then return).Once you unpause it,the next romance dialog should be triggered
